PPH Rejects City of Escondido's Spruce Street Site

The Palomar Pomerado Health (PPH) district has rejected the Spruce Street site proposed by the City of Escondido. No Surprise. They are again pushing the ERTC. See report in the North County Times:

The ERTC is too dangerous for a hospital because of the new electric power plant.



Inland North San Diego County needs at least three hospitals. A new hospital in San Marcos, an upgraded Palomar Medical Center in Escondido, and an upgraded Pomerado Hospital in Poway. See Union Tribune Editorial of May 26, 2005 (4th letter on the page)

The Palomar Medical Center in Escondido is the Heart of Downtown Escondido. PPH should maintain PMC as an acute care hospital and Trauma Center, or PPH should sell the Heart of Downtown Escondido to those who care.
